re: How did y'all deal with putting a dog down

My boxer/lab mix disappeared one afternoon and didn't return no matter how many times I tried to call him. Drove around and couldn't find him anywhere. I made it home about 10 pm, poured some scotch and began to deal with the fact that he was gone. Where I live, once you lose a dog, 99% chance someone either ran him over, stole him, or shot him. At about midnight, I stepped out onto the porch to smoke and there he was. Laying at my doorstep. He had been hit and I have no idea how he made it back. This was about a month ago and he is just as he was before now.


Morale of the story is, sometimes when you "know", you really have no clue.
